Ok, my first post, and I've tried to search first!
So my question is .....
I'm about to land my first contract following taking a redundancy as a permie back in June. As a permie with my pay off I earnt just short of the higher tax bracket. I've set up a Ltd company for my contract but was wondering whether it is possible to pay myself zero salary from the company until April next year as obviously I will be taxed at the higher rate. I have seen the recommendations to typically pay min wage up to the tax treshold throughout the year, but no advice on paying zero or maybe an arbitary £1/month.
I will be running it past my accountant once they have been allocated but thought to seek wisdom from the forum first.
